45 Trading Cards! These beautifully printed and hand embellished cards are a hoot for folks who collect. Whether you collect records or don’t want that structural burden on your house these cards spark joy and are lightweight. Each card is researched, my favorite way to get tidbits historians wouldn’t get are the little things that interviews give, and many books, and podcasts. Lots of fun learning then compressing hours of research to a few lines, which is not easy when you find everything fascinating. We tried to write for the heads and hoped we could give them something they wouldn’t have known.

There are a few ways you will be able to collect them if you so wish. Record labels and subsidiaries are the color on the back of the card. The artist's name is on one end. The color in the corner is the country it was printed in or just collect the whole set! The corners will change with the genre. The legend provided with each pack tells you how to read the grid and tells you what the little illustrations mean.

Included in the pack is a magnifying glass, a sticker, a candy, and 8 of the possible 11 cards. With the first 42 packs having a special edition card. (Currently all first 42 packs have been sold)

The 45 Traders is a journey in all the genres we want (we have a wild packed year of releases!), helping us move toward our goal of releasing music, and share our passion for history and music. This release is an expansion of what we thought we were capable of. Took You Long Enough Records is honored and proud to present, The Picture Sleeve Edition of The 45 Traders.
